There are some people whose posts aren't worth reading. And you have the ignore function or just ignore them yourself. As for myself - I'm not really annoyed about the result nor am I happy with it.

Obviously it's potentially an absolute disaster but what can you do? I get the feeling the mood amongst most is just helplessness. There is an obvious way we could have improved in the last few games and that was by playing our best players. Like it or not, an 18 year old kid who has hardly played is one of our best players. Nobody expects him to save the day, but maybe the day wouldn't need to be saved if we had a starting line-up who were capable of doing the basics right. I have little doubt in my mind that had Oxlade started most league games after the Milan performance, we would've sewn up 3rd by now. But, as I said, I'm just tired of stating that obvious mystery - and we are left with this feeling of 'come on Arsene, it's really not that hard, play your best players...'
